Timken (TKR) Supplies Bearings for Ford Motor F-150 Lightning
Read MoreHide Full Article
The Timken Company (TKR - Free Report) announced that Ford Motor Company’s (F - Free Report) electric light-duty pickup truck, F-150 Lightning, is using Timken’s packaged wheel bearings. Notably, the company started supplying wheel bearings for the F-150 Lightning in April 2022.
Timken has spent a long time on advanced designs for electric vehicles (“EVs”). Its technology has advanced to create lighter, smaller and more fuel-efficient solutions capable of meeting the unique performance demands of EVs, such as higher torque and load requirements.
Manufacturers such as Ford can switch to EV designs without having to rethink their entire supply chain with the help of Timken's customized bearing designs. Timken worked closely with the Ford team to deal with design challenges and support Ford’s high standards for performance and safety. Timken assisted Ford’s timeline and provided information on innovating product and process technologies to address the emerging EV trend.
Timken and Ford have a long-standing relationship. It dates back to 1908 when the companies collaborated for the production of the Model T. In addition to other variations of F-150, Ford employs Timken bearings in its Expedition and Lincoln Navigator SUVs.
Timken has been benefiting from growth across most end-market sectors, led by industrial distribution and off-highway, and the impact of higher pricing.
In the third quarter of 2022, the company reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.52, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.33. The bottom line increased 29% year over year. Total revenues in the quarter were $1,136 million, up 9.6% from the year-ago quarter. The top line surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1,091 million.
To reflect the third-quarter results, Timken raised the adjusted EPS guidance for 2022 to $5.80-$5.95 from the previously stated $5.50-$5.80. For 2022, it expects total revenue growth of 9% from the 2021 reported level.
